history of the club
History Manchester United is more than 120 years of tradition and passion for football. For over age players, supporters and activists have experienced the glory of the United glory and sorrow of defeat. In the hearts of all fans is saved from the tragedy of Munich ... Manchester United is the largest and finest football club in the world. In this section you will be able to read and see how it was with United over the centuries. This section is rather for those who prefer stories from the dry facts and statistics. It tells the story of the fledgling United workmen's club team to a world power and glory in not less than 6500 words. Was divided into 11 parts, and eleven deleted dekada.Lata 1878-present 1909Manchester United Football Club was formed in 1878, but under a different name than the current - Newton Heath LYR (Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway). Employees of railways at Newton Heath, did not suspecting the impact will have on regional, national or even global football, gave up his passion for the company founded by their football, playing against other departments LYR or other kompaniom kolejowym.Jednak when it was formed Football League in 1888, players Newton Heath did not consider to be sufficiently dobrych by stać się członkami - założycielami ligi takimi jak Blackburn Rovers czy Preston North End. Czekali aż do 1892 roku by wejść do krajowej ligi. Problemy finansowe od początku dręczyły Newton Heath. Doszło do tego, że na początku XX wieku wydawało się, że klub jest skazany na zagładę. Został on jednak uratowany przez lokalnego właściciela browaru. Był nim John Henry Davies. Legenda głosi, że dowiedział się on o sytuacji klubu, kiedy znalazł psa należącego do kapitana Newton Heath Harry'ego Stafforda. Davies podjął decyzję o zainwestowaniu w klub pieniędzy, w zamian za współdecydowanie o jego losach. This led to a name change and after a few alternative proposals, including the Manchester Central and Manchester Celtic, in late April and May 1902 born Manchester United.Kolejną influential person came to Manchester United was Ernest Mangnall, who was appointed secretary in September 1903 year, but is widely known as the first manager of the club. His team, which found themselves brought by Mangnalla players, like goalkeeper Harry Moger and forward Charlie Sagar, finished the season in third place in the Second Division in the 1903-1904 season and again in the 1904-1905 season. Next season of 1905-1906 was one of the best in the early history of Manchester United. Defensive line, which then played Dick Duckworth, Alex Bell and captain Charlie Roberts were in a basic formation of the team that reached the FA Cup quarter-final, but more importantly finished the season as the second team in the Second Division. Twelve years after falling to second division Manchester United booked their place in the best league (the league ...). On the occasion of the celebration Mangnall player signed a contract with local rivals MU - Manchester City. Billy Meredith was one of them known as the "Welsh Wizard" (the Welsh Wizard). Meredith has been embroiled in scandal in the MC-induced bribery and put on the transfer list along with 17 other players. Mangnall very quickly made his move and won the signature of Meredith before the auction began. The arrival of winger turned out to be very inspirational - Meredith assisted with countless goals from Sandy Turnbull in the 1907-1908 season, when United won their first trophy in history - the Champions League. As champions, the players of Manchester United played in the first match played the Charity Shield match in 1908. Of course, rightly won the trophy, beating FA Cup winners Quincy Park Royal, 4-0, thanks to a hat-trick Sandy namesake, Jimmy Turnbulla.Trzecim title was won by the team of the FA Cup, super-won at the end of the season 1908-1909. Manchester United beat Bristol City in the finals 1-0. Score the importance of Sandy Turnbull scored the victory. And so the first chapter of club history, ended with a high evaluation, with the promise of the arrival of even more even greater success, and moving to a new stadium ... 1910-1919Prawdziwi Manchester United fans know that the famous Old Trafford was first played in a football match 1909/10 season. The site where the stadium was built, was purchased by the Manchester Brewery Company, which manchesterowskie breweries, who presided John Henry Davies, and then donated to the club. Davies also paid for his work on the construction of which began in 1908 under the supervision of renowned architect Archibald Leitch. Until 1910 the club moved all the furnishings and technical backup from the old headquarters of the club at the Bank Street.Pierwszy match at Old Trafford, United played 19 February 1910. The new facility hosts then lost 4-3 to their first guest, Liverpool, but the stadium was filled to capacity 80 thousand spectators. 2 days before an old wooden stadium of Bank Street collapsed with because of the terrible storm - that was proof that the club's board made the right choice, and Manchester United needed a new home. Indeed, Manchester United was crowned League Championships for the second time in history, at the end of the first full season at Old Trafford from 1910 to 1911. Reached the trophy in the last round, winning the league at home to Sunderland 5-1 with two goals Harold Halse'a. Halse was not the only hero conquering goals in the second championship season. Another was a striker and zawadiaka Enoch 'Knocker' West, who scored 19 goals during the campaign. Manchester United also won the Charity Shield then, beating Swindon Town 8:4, dzięki wysokiej formie Halse'a, który zdobył podwójnego hat-tricka! Pomimo takich sukcesów Manchester United nie potrafił utrzymać wysokiej formy. W sezonie 1911/12 i obrońcy tytułu mistrza Anglii rozczarowując zakończyli sezon na 13. pozycji. Sekretarz i jednocześnie manager klubu Ernest Mangnall przyjął ciężar krytyki jaka spadła na niego, zrezygnował z mianowanych funkcji i przeszedł do sąsiadów - rywali zza miedzy - Manchesteru City.Poszukiwania następcy Mangnalla zakończyły się na osobie J.J. Bentley'a, prezydenta Ligi. Pod jego przywództwem Czerwone Diabły zdobyły czwarte miejsce w lidze w sezonie 1912/13. Sezon 1913-1914 was a period of transfers, when Charlie Roberts and Alex Bell were sold according to Oldham Athletic and Blackburn Rovers. Manchester United ended the season in 14th position, and the West was the top scorer of the third season in a row. Season 1914/15 is noteworthy due to the change manager - in December 1914 the secretary and manager roles were first distributed in franchise history. Bentley has been a full-time club secretary and John Robson was hired as a manager. Robson, the team was only a substitute for that which was formed in the previous decade. From the team that won the FA Cup in 1909 and remained only George Stacey, Billy Meredith, Sandy Turnbull and George Wall. No wonder that the club sturlał down the table, saving up before falling just 1 point. Spells bitterness Mangnall fulfill your MC, which took fifth place, 13 positions higher than MU. Before we began to plan for Manchester United's way back to full form, the outbreak of World War I pushed the football into the background. League games were suspended, and the clubs have fled to the regional tournaments. The Red Devils played in the Main Event and A secondary Lancashire for 4 seasons, but it was less than expected. Until that situation is complicated in that it punished the club's two best players - Enoch West and Sandy Turnbull - for joining the British Battalion Footballers helping in war, first move it away from matches, but later were sentenced to "life imprisonment", or a lifetime dyskwalifikację.Niestety In the meantime Turnbull tragically died during a battle in France in May 1917, leaving Manchester United without another of the characters who appeared to the early wieku.Lata 1920-19691919/20 ... Manchester United returned to the League and the English 30 August 1919, after a four-year break caused by the First War World. The team in the first match against Derby County there were many new faces - only two players in the colors of United played before the war in 1914/15.Billy season, Meredith was still at Old Trafford, but was approaching the end of his illustrious career at the Theatre of Dreams . He played only 19 games in the 1919/20 season as United finished 12th place in the First Division. The new hero of the crowds, Joe Spence, finished the season as top scorer in the club with 14 league hits. He was again top scorer in the 1920/21 season, and Manchester United ended the season in 13th position. Manager John Robson then left the club, and was replaced by John Chapman, who was secretary and manager, which recently also held JJ Bentley. In the meantime, former manager Ernest Mangnall continued to work with Manchester City, who moved to a new stadium at Maine Road. Mangnall Meredith also made the transfer to the MC. However, this transfer because of advanced age, Billy probably had no effect on the fall United in their first season without the Welsh Wizard in the warehouse, when they won just eight of 42 games in 1921-1922 season! Team Chapman, who played in the Second Division was deprived of all the stars and do not managed to get promotion in the first (1922-1923), and even the second approach (1923-1924). But at the end of the leader on the pitch, Frank Barson, finally brought a marked improvement and, consequently, Manchester United were promoted to the First Division in season 1924/25. Red Devils have ranked in second place, just behind Leicester City, losing only 8 meczów.Wysokie United flights were confirmed by the ninth place in the league in season 1925/26. Team Chapman also had a good start in the FA Cup, but this time they stopped in the semifinals when they defeated Manchester City 3-0 at Bramall Lane. Fortunately, the MC did not last long since lost in the final with Bolton Wanderers and lost his place in the First Division. United fans could not not afford to joy at the failure of the MC. After 2 months of 1926/27 season, the Red Devils had their own problems, when the FA (English Football Federation) has suspended manager John Chapman with immediate effect for reasons that were never made public. United winger Clarence Hilditch took over as player-manager while the club was looking for more permanent manager. However, "Lal", despite the fact of being the first playing manager, are reluctant to exhibit their the game and the team as a result cierpiał.Stałym successor was Herbert Chapman Bamlett who came to the club at the end of the season. He was already well known to United fans, as the judge who gave the victory in the FA Cup quarter-finals in 1909 with the participation of MU and Burnley, when the Red Devils, 1-0 losers in the middle of a snowstorm. Bamlett said it was too cold to dograć match to end so the match was interrupted. However, in a match powtórkowym United beat Burnley 3-2 and rose further after winning the first time in the history of the FA Cup! Unfortunately Bamlett have not won no trophy with United as a manager. The team is slowly slips down the First Division, finishing 15th place in the 1926/27 season and 18 in the 1927/28 season. Then gently return to the top of the table, on the 12th position in the season 1928/29. True, Joe Spence continued to shoot the goal, but even he could not stop the slow decline of Manchester United ... Their fears proved to be the next season, when United had the worst start in franchise history at that time, losing the first 12 league games in a row! A dozen defeats ... Including lost at Old Trafford, the first 6-0 with Huddersfield Town, then 7:4 from Newcastle United. It's November, before the team won the first Herbert Bamletta points by winning 2-0 at home to Birmingham City. United eventually lost 27 of 42 league games in the 1930/31 season, losing 115 goals! Degradation of the team to Division II led to wywalenia Bamletta and take over as manager by the Secretary Walter Crickmera. This has not changed, however, once the status quo. United lost two matches at the start of the tournament in the Second Division. Patience of fans was repeatedly put to the test, and few of them kept close to the club - for the opening match came just 3507 people. When the season got under way the situation deteriorated even more. Since December, the club ticket office there was no money on Gaza players. Bankruptcy stood in the doorway of the club ... Club Salvation came in the person of James Gibson, a manufacturer producing soldiers' uniforms. He invested 30 thousand. pounds, paid players and the club pulled out from the bottom. Gibson hired a new manager - Scott Duncan got the money to buy players, but not delivered most of them. A terrible game, led by Duncan in the 1933/34 season has led Manchester United to the edge of a precipice into the Third Division for the first time in club history. They survived only through the last day of the season, when they won 2-0 thanks to goals from Tom and Jack Manley'a Cape'a, sending their rivals, Millwall, to the third division. That same week, Manchester City won the FA Cup with a guy called ... Matt Busby in the United składzie.Manchester 1934-1935 season ended on the 5th place, and then in the 1935/36 season, won the first trophy of the decade. Unbeaten through last 19 games of the season secured the Second Division championship by winning 3-2 against Bury at Gigg Lane thanks to goals from George Mutcha.Wspaniała Manley'a and form at the end of the season in the Second Division suggested that United could have a great deal when you return to First Division, but for Christmas Narodzenia wygrali zaledwie 4 mecze, włączając w to wygraną w Wigilię! Tylko 10 zwycięstw w całym sezonie oznaczało relegację, w momencie kiedy wróg zza miedzy, Manchester City, ponownie udowodnił swoją wyższość zdobywając Mistrzostwo Ligi. W zdegradowanym zespole grał Walter Winterbottom, który póĽniej otrzymał tytuł szlachecki za prowadzenie reprezentacji Anglii przez 16 lat.W następnym sezonie 1937/38 United awansował do I ligi, zajmując drugie miejsce tuż za Aston Villa. Scott Duncan mógł się cieszyć tylko do listopada 1937, kiedy opuścił klub na rzecz Ipswich Town. Walter Crickmer ponownie wszedł na ławkę reserve as a caring manager of Manchester United. In the limelight of the season led by Duncan and Crickmera was discovered Johnny Carey, who would later be regarded as the greatest stopper in the history of football. When you play 32 games at Manchester United and scoring 6 goals, this time Carey has helped keep the club in the league, who finished 14th place, while the MC, this time the league was demoted below! However, there was not time enough of the taste of revenge - the outbreak of war once again stopped the league for a few years ... The outbreak of World War II forced to discontinue football matches between 1939 and 1949. But even though the English league suspension, Old Trafford was still the center of zainteresowania.11 March 1941, the stadium was bombed by the Germans. During the attack was destroyed grandstand, changing rooms and offices. Raid devastated a large part of the base, but within a few years, everything had to be rebuilt and the stadium had come back clear nastroje.Wszystko back to normal when the club came to Matt Busby. Then did not know that it will be the most well-known, respected and important man in the history of Manchester United. Former Manchester City footballer and Liverpool, served in the 9th Battalion of the Royal Wings of Liverpool, where he showed his ability to command. These values \u200b\u200bcould not escape the eye czujnemu United.Busby joined the Red Devils in 1945, initially for 5 years. Certainly not thought that will lead the club 25 years later! First step Busby and Murphy's on the road to success was to build a team capable of taking the fight for national trophies. We managed it to them right on the first try, when United won the second English League place behind Liverpool in the 1946/47 season, the first after World War II. This was the highest position the club for 36 years, and in the United reserves won their (Central) League, the English in the same season. Busby mixed the young local boys and older experienced players. The experiment was successful, and as early as next season 1947/48 Manchester United won the FA Cup in the finals by beating Blackpool with players such as Stanley Matthews, Stan Mortensen and Harry Johnston. So myelo 39 years from the date when Manchester United won the first time this year and the only puchar.Puchar England was also the first major trophy since winning the Division One Championship in 1911 and winning the championship became a goal number 1 for people Busby ' ego. During the first 5 Manchester United's post-war seasons, four times he was second in the English league, and only once was the fourth (in 1949-1950). Thrill in the chase after the title brought the tide of fans - more than a million of them experienced fortunes of Manchester United during the 1947/48 season, pulling the club out of debt. Certainly the fans did not have long to wait to be wynagrodzonymi success, which deserved ... All good things, unfortunately, soon come to an end. A good example is even the beginning of the 50s at United when the Red Devils manager was Matt Busby. Differences of views and wewnątrzklubowe quarrels led to rozejącia the ways in 1948 after winning the FA Cup Johnna Morris, who left for Derby County and Charlie Mitten, who was his magic skills to Columbia. Some fans worried about the loss of the stars of this caliber, but everyone who believed in Busby was soon nagrodzony.Wspaniałym Scot idea was to promote young players are recruited and trained in the reserves in the late '40s Jackie Blanchflower and Roger Byrne were the first who emerged and were called the "Busby Babes" (Children Busby) by the newspaper. In their debut 1951/52 season, Manchester United won the league championship for the first time since 1911. 21-year-old Byrne was a big part in this success, appearing in 24 games, including six on the wing, where he scored 7 goals. Then he returned to his position of left back and got the captaincy in February 1954, which he held for 4 years. In the season 1955/56 and 1956/57 Byrne won the championship of England as a great master of the youth, which played a few more soccer school graduates Busby. Eddie Colman, Mark Jones and David Pegg seniorskim played regularly in the team, holding in his teeth Youth FA Cup, which United won by five years in a row since its emergence in 1953 roku.Jednak not all young talents have been grown at the club. Manchester United manager was equally happy when he fell into a vortex of transfer purchases in March 1953, spending nearly L30 thousand. to buy Tommy Taylor from Barnsley supernapastnika. The Englishman has proved that it was worth it to bring the same amount, scoring lots of goals for United and England. For the next big money in December 1957 brought the goalkeeper from Doncaster Rovers. He was Harry Gregg. Transfer the value of L23 thousand. was then a world record for a goalkeeper, but he soon found that the money is well spent and Gregg immediately established himself between the posts in the United goal, defending superbly. He soon became a No. 1 player in the first representation of his country - Ireland Północnej.Kolejnym young player, who had become the club and the team was Duncan Edwards. So energetic, talented and mature teenager Matt Busby could not long keep away from the team seniorskiego United. In April 1953 Edwards became the youngest player in Division One in history - the debut was 16 years and 185 days! Game that probably summed up the new era Busby Babes, was the meeting with Arsenal at Highbury on 1 February 1958. With 63 578 screaming fans Reds beat Arsenal 5-4 in a match-thriller. For Manchester United goals scored: Edwards, Taylor (2), Bobby Charlton and Dennis Viollet.Niestety match which was probably their best performance on the English grass, was also the last performance of the specific composition of Manchester United. After Highbury Busby Babes played in the second leg of the European Cup with Red Star Belgrade Gvezdą. Again they won 5-4, rewanżując up for a draw at Old Trafford, but on the way back they celebrate success was interrupted by a huge tragedy. After a stopover and refueling at the airport in Munich, February 6, 1958 an airplane crashed on Manchester United at the start. Killed 22 people, including seven players: Byrne, Colman, Jones, Pegg, Taylor, Geoff Bent and Liam Whelan. Duncan Edwards was an 8 player, who died 15 days after the accident in a German hospital because odniesionych ran.Klub, the city of Manchester, English and world football was plunged into mourning and it seemed inconceivable that Manchester United could ever rise from this terrible disaster . But when Matt Busby came back against the advice of doctors to the health team bounced off the bottom. Assistant manager, Jimmy Murphy, he led United to the FA Cup final in May 1958, at Wembley where they lost to Bolton Wanderers, 12 months after eliminating the Red Devils by Aston Villa.Kontynuując custom occupy second place, the Red Devils took second in the league in season 1958/59. Since then, the team was again in the transition period, because Matt Busby was constructing another great team for another great decade ... After building one of the best teams in England, Matt Busby had to start all over again in the early 60s Airline crash in Munich and robbed him of some of the best football players of the decade. But a great manager he could not sit still long with folded hands. When cured their wounds and returned to health, began to build another team that had to conquer the whole świat.Denis Viollet was one of the leading names in his band. Survivor of the Munich disaster, in the 1959/60 season, broke the record of Jack Rowley'a scoring in the league 32 goals in one season. The club scored a total of 102, but allowed himself to shoot as many as 80 goals and Manchester United finally ended the season in seventh miejscu.Viollet was not the only player who "survived the Munich" and did a wonderful career at Old Trafford. Among the others were Bill Foulkes and Bobby Charlton, who rank youngster broke into the first team and started shooting to beat the records of the club and country. Nobby Stiles followed the same path, from youth to first team, while Denis Law came to a much simpler way - thanks to record-breaking transfer (k L115.) With the United Torino.Forma was moody at the beginning of the decade, when the club there were new names, but then it all as it should be surprised at Wembley in the FA Cup final in 1963. Team Matt Busby after a face-lift defeated Leicester City 3-1, two goals scored David Herd, Denis and one Law.W United next season, encouraged by winning the FA Cup, he was going to win the championship, which however failed - Manchester came second, losing just two championship points for Liverpool with which the Red Devils lost at home and away. 1962/63 season was also notable for the signing of the contract and the debut of George Best, a young man from Belfast, who later became the first football superstar. His unbelievable ability, running the ball and its control have made many a difficulty of defenders, the fans loved him for it, while his all-star appearance powalał feet damy.W famous trio of the season 1964-1965: Best, Law and Charlton led United to new heights. They won the league and won the championship of England, ahead of Leeds to win a few goals, and reached the semi-finals and the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup. Goals Law brought him fame and was named Best Player of the Year in Europie.Wydawało that the team winning streak will continue, but unfortunately, the players took off their foot off the gas during the next season, 1965-1966, losing the title to Liverpool and taking the fourth place. United played in two cup competitions, the FA Cup and European Cup, also finished both beaten in the semifinals. The best moment this season was the away game with Benfica Lisbon in the quarterfinals of the European Cup, which ended in ignominious defeat them 5-1 up, and Best was in his life formie.W 1966/67 season, Manchester United again won the championship of England, and Law scored 23 goals in 36 matches. This success is further ensured United had a fantastic season in the European Cup in season 1967/68. Hibernians, FK Sarajevo, Gornik Zabrze and Real Madrid were beaten by Manchester United, who stepped in a big way to Wembley Cup final Europy.Benfica appeared strong resistance in the final. Charlton gave the first head of the Red devils running, but then leveled Jaime Graca and led to extra time. In fact, Benfica could win in normal time the game had Alex Stepney not defend a great shot Eusebio. Best, Brian Kidd and Charlton led the extra half hour, scoring the goal each, beating Portugal 4-1 and winning the World Cup. Hit the European Cup at Old Trafford for the first time in history. In just 10 years after he lost his dreams of Matt Busby in the crash near Munich, has made the impossible. Soon after he was given szlachecki.Sezon him the title of European Champions 1968/69 could only finish in 11th place in the league. They were also eliminated from the FA Cup sixth round and the European Cup in the semifinals. They lost 2-1 in the final of the Club World Cup with Estudiants. Despite the end of the decade transfixing United fans could feel the satisfaction of the 60s Some could accuse Sir Matt Busby'emu decision to leave after the 1968-1969 season, after all what he achieved with the club ... The years 1970-1999and its blednącymi memories of triumph in the European Cup Manchester United's attention turned toward the manager's job. Sir Matt Busby guided the club to the promised land just 10 years after losing half of his team and nearly his life in the crash at Munich, but now gone, leaving the club with a problem that had to be rozwiązać.Pierwszym solution was the appointment to the post of manager, someone from inside, namely, one of the trainers team Busby and former player Wilf McGuinness. Saying that he had received in a fall after Sir Busby'm great team is an understatement on a grand scale. The combination of aging players and the lack of complete control over events in the team meant that McGuinness struggled for survival, with Sir Matt who saw over his shoulder. Putting players such as Dennis Law and Shay Brennan on the transfer list and the continuation of George Best antics off the pitch was not allowed Wilf'owi pomogły.Nie fight for too long. At Christmas in 1970 he was released from his duties, and Sir Matt Busby temporarily stood guard, while the club was looking for a cost-effective sukcesorem.Frank O'Farrell was the next time you try to perform "mission impossible", leaving Leicester City to the United in June 1970. Despite a promising start to the season 1971/72 Irishman did not fell anything better at McGuinness. United's defeat to Crystal Palace 5-0 until 16 December 1972 year was his last performance. Although the baton in a relay of power through the history of United O'Farrell kept very brief, left a clear mark on the 70s team, pulling off at Old Trafford Martin Bucha for the record sum of L125 thousand. The former Aberdeen captain was soon to become a key player Tommy Docherty O'Farrell'a successor, who was appointed manager of Manchester United at Christmas in 1972, Tom roku.Pierwszym challenge was to keep the team in the league and the gradual replacement of United legends of the 60s Sir Bobby Charlton has announced that leave at the end of 1972/73 season, George Best once again changed their habits, and Denis Law had a peak of his skills behind. In fact, Law went on a free transfer in June 1973, leaving that to zemściło Docherty'm. The striker joined Manchester City and scored a goal against United at Old Trafford in April 1974, sending his former club to the Second Division.Niektórzy Docherty predecessors had to feel hurt when he was spared the decline in United's second division. But fortunately for the Reds Docherty returned very quickly. Captured Championship Second Division in 1974/75, a top scorer Stuart 'Pancho' Pearson scoring 17 goals in the league was the top scorer of the league. Lou Macari scored the importance of promotion to the First Division April 5, 1975 Southampton.Potem year against Manchester United two consecutive time occurred in the FA Cup final, losing to Southampton in 1976, but 12 months later they came back and defeated Liverpool 2-1. People Docherty stood perfectly to the challenge posed to them - "Find Them and destroy them!" - Namely the destruction of hope for Liverpool's triple crown, as the Merseyside club have already won the championship England and the European Cup in contrast to the United - the two winners' Cup. The joy of this success did not last very long for Docherty. Just 44 days later he was fired when it turned out that was covered with at home by his wife Mary with his mistress, which proved to be the club's wife Laurie, a psychotherapist Brown.Manager Quincy Park Royal Dave Sexton was on the spot Docherty summer of 1977, but although the club under his leadership did not take place in the top ten league in season 1977/78 and 1978/79, again led by United at Wembley in 1979. Unfortunately the Reds lost Arsenal 3-2 there with one of the most memorable endings in the history of the finals of the FA Cup. Gordon McQueen and then Sammy McIroy scored goals in the last 5 minutes, leading to a 2-2 tie, but then a goal in extra time for the Gunners Alan Sunderland scored, giving them the Cup Anglii.Tych some shocking and surprising moments at Wembley summed up the 70s Manchester United - a decade of great drama when great highs and terrible lows were never too far apart. With the rise of the 80s came finer stability ... The beginning of the 80th was not a success for Manchester United. In January 1980 Tottenham The Reds knocked out of the FA Cup in the first round, and in early March a team led by Dave Sexton was smashed up by Ipswich Town 6-0! However, Sexton and his team in time to wake up and saw the specter of vultures circling above-the executioners of their their heads and started to play well, winning eight of the last 10 league games and ended the season in second place, losing just two points to end of season 1980/81 Liverpoolu.Na United again had a great finish, when they won the last 7 games in a row. But this time, the season has just ended on the 8th place - the position he could not tolerate and accept the club's board. Sexton was sacked 30 April 1981, after four seasons on the hot posadce.Następca Sexton Ron Atkinson called Mick Brown as assistant manager and Eric Harrison as head coach for youngsters. But his achievements boiskowy really excited fans. He defeated the British transfer record hiring of Bryan Robson from West Bromwich Albion, his old club for L1.5 million and issued approximately one third of that money on Remi Moses, also a player in West Bromwich Albion.W help newly arrived wonderfully supplemented finesse Ray and Wilkins, a great playmaker, a star of England. But United are still missing something. Manchester need a striker who could match up with Ian Rush from Liverpool, who again won the championship of England in 1982, 1983 and 1984. Atkinson People were never far behind, finishing each season of his dominance and power in the third or 4 position. But we were never behind nim.Krajowe cups offer Man United's best chance of winning a trophy. So in 1983 came down to Wembley (ie finals) on both cup competitions. Liverpool beat them 2-1 after extra time in the Milk Cup final, while a bit extravagant, Brighton & Hove Albion were against United in the Cup final Anglii.Od Reds Big Ron's expected to easily win the gulls, but it turned out that Brighton is a hard nut to crack and the match ended 2:2. In fact, dark horse could win the Cup if the United goalkeeper Gary Bailey did not defend the shot of Gordon Smith in the final minute of stoppage czasu.Naród gathering strength on the TV an extra game five days later, but this time Brighton was no match against Manchester United, who defeated them 4-0, a goal scored: Robson (2), Arnold Muhren and Norman Whiteside Whiteside.Zwyczaj to become equal to the task has never been so nice recognized in 1985 when scored a goal in the FA Cup final, 1-0 victory over dajścego Everton. United played at the end of the match in the eye, because the red card looked at Kevin Moran, who along with Paul McGrath created a great central defenders in the two years he was 80.To Atkinson second FA Cup in three seasons, but 18 months later became the fourth United manager, who was dismissed from work due to the inability to break the monopoly of Liverpool's Champions of England. Up to 10 consecutive victories in the league at the start of the 1985/86 season could not keep it on posadzie.W November 1986 Manchester United finally hired a proven winner. As Aberdeen manager Alex Ferguson has won every prize that Scotland could offer, not to mention participation in the Cup Winners Cup, where his team defied overwhelming superiority of Real Madrid and defeated the Kings! Fergie certainly had a talent for the job, but he needed more time to turn United. Management of the club remained patient, if the Red Devils were on the 11th place in the 1986-87 season and again in the 1988-89 season. Besides 1987/88 season gave encouraging signs as United finished the 2nd season position just behind Liverpool, winning eight and tied two of the last 10 games. The promise of this season due to a number of transfers has done, and soon will be met by Mr Ferguson ... East 90s - Alex Ferguson won his first trophy as manager of Manchester United and Liverpool winning their last championship of the English league has an aging team. The event began to untwist ... The first FA Cup Ferguson, recaptured after powtórkowym match with Crystal Palace, seemed to be lonely if successful, one of those who could possibly save his cushy number after another słabiutkim season in the English league. But nine years later, it seemed that Lee Martin's winning goal against Crystal Palace lit the fuse on an explosion of unprecedented sukcesów.Pierwszy and most important, that winning the FA Cup in 1990 allowed United to return to the European cups after a five year break. Far from "zardzewienia" went all the way to the final of the Cup Winners Cup, where their opponent was a great Barcelona, \u200b\u200bformer club Manchester United striker Mark Hughes. To the delight of Ferguson's two goals gave the player winning 2-1 in May 1991, 23 years after the club's last triumph in Europe. Another long wait for the elusive England Championship then quickly ended in April 1992. The Red Devils won the third trophy Ferguson (League Cup) and went head to head in the race for the championship with Leeds United. The two were beyond the reach of Liverpool, which, however, had something to say to the outcome of the title, beating United 2-0 at Anfield and ruining the dreams of Red Diabłów.Sezon 1991-1992 will be remembered in Manchester as one in which United lost the title captured by the Peacocks. Leeds United, after all, was not the greatest of football powers of the 90s, and the number of stars was reduced when let go one of their best players to Manchester United in December 1992. Selling Cantona at Old Trafford, the Yorkshire club practically dropped from the hands the key to the Championship of England. The Frenchman brought with him some of that magic, which was lacking in previous United fighting for the title and quickly became a hero to fans of MU, he scored 9 goals in the league, helping the Red devils win his first title of Champion of England for the next 26 years.In the 1993/94 season team came to the right path to the historic doublet, or the Double Crown (England Championship and FA Cup), with Cantona be disturbed in a shirt with the number 7, which has long been the property of Bryan Robson. At that time, the number 1 was undoubtedly Peter Schmeichel, unquestionably the best goalie ever seen at Old Trafford.Nieobecność Cantona for eight months from January 1995 due to an incident with a fan of Crystal Palace, showed that Manchester United is not in a position to defend a doublet. They lost the title by one point to Blackburn Rovers and lost the FA Cup with Everton one goal. Former champions were beaten at Wembley because of injury, Steve Bruce, a brave captain who was the defensive rock of the early left 90.Bruce also next year's FA Cup final at the end of the 1995-96 season, but this time the result was completely different. Liverpool stood between Manchester United and the first ever double doublet, and guarded by remisowego into extra time when Cantona scored in the 86th min. Frenchman for the entire season has been an inspiration for young talented players, including David Beckham and Gary Neville. In May 1997, Cantona helped United win the fourth Champion of England in this decade. It was, as it turned out, his last trophy, because surprisingly walked away from football in the same month. The shock Eric's decision seemed to last all season, as the Red Devils have not won any trophy, while Arsenal won the Doublet. Re-injured key players, especially Ryan Giggs and Roy Keane, have been identified as the cause of discount form Man United.Wpływ Giggs could have had what the outcome was never greater than in the second leg of the FA Cup semi-final in 1998/99, when scored probably the goal of the decade - he ran with the ball for half the pitch, he left behind Arsenal defenders clinging on tightly dilution air, and he ended the campaign goal. Thanks this victory was assured of a place United in the FA Cup fifth in the 90s, who this time won, beating Newcastle United 2-0 after goals from Paul Scholes and Teddy Sheringhama.Ten result gave United a third Doublet, after six days later Andy Cole scored at Old Trafford in a match against Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United won the title of Champion of England. But it was still much to achieve in this memorable season. After an epic Champions League semi-final against Juventus of Turin, in which the tie 1-1 at Old Trafford, MU already losing 0-2 at the Stadium del Alpi, thanks to the inspiration to fight off the Italians Keane and win 3-2, Manchester United came to an equally epic as dramatic Champions League final against Bayern Munich at the Nou Camp in Barcelonie.Próby Manchester United to win the European Cup for the first time since 1968, appeared to be burned to nothing, when Bayern soon became shot lead after Mario Basler's free-kick. But the Red Devils have implemented one of the most crushing returns to the stage in sporting history - Sheringham equalized after the first wave performed by varying the administration of Beckham and Giggs, and a moment later (exactly 127 seconds.), His colleague Ole Gunnar Solskjaer after throwing varying performed again Beckham struck the ball bounced his head by Sheringham and found the result to 2:1. United won the triple crown, and their manager Alex Ferguson received a knighthood, while his fans around the world in a blissful state tkwili chwały.Potrójna later became the crown four times, when Sir Alex Ferguson's men went to Tokyo for the Intercontinental Cup match. Keane v Brazilian Gol Palmeiras club gave United the title of World Champion. Officially, the end of the millennium, the biggest club in the world has also become the best in the world! Years 2000-2009Manchester United started new decade, century and millennium, a typical pioneer fascination. They joined the all-new tournament, FIFA - Club World Championship in Brazil - but at the cost of participation in the FA Cup which they won a year wcześniej.Styczniowa trip to South America did not end up winning any medal by United - Brazilian beat teams on their own ground with so stifling climate was impossible - but the devils gave a very useful time of rest and relaxation in a sunny country. After returning to England, rejuvenation with a trip to the other hemisphere, parted their rivals in the race for the championship. Early, it was only in April, won their sixth Premier League Champion (and 1913 Champion of England), but still did not have a worthy successor to Peter Schmeichela.Kilkunastu goalkeepers including Mark Bosnisha, tried and failed to establish himself as a goalkeeper No 1 in season 1999/2000. So strong was the surprise acquisition of Fabien Barthez in July 2000, fresh from winning his gold medal of the European Championships and then add it to the gold medal of the 1998 World Cup roku.Ekscentryczny, but a wonderful French goalkeeper helped United to capture a third consecutive title Master of England in 2000/01, the success that previously reached only a few clubs in England. Liverpool was the last, making it in 1982, 1983 and 1984, but it has been done under the leadership of two different managers - Bob Paisley and Joe Fagana.Sir Alex Ferguson was at the helm of all three titles and Manchester United was the first in the history of English football manager, who scored a hat-trick. " At the end of his last triumph, Ferguson announced that he is likely to leave Manchester United at the end of 2001/02. At the same time his right-hand man Steve McClaren announced that he will leave immediately with United, to take up a job as manager of Middlesbrough after Bryanie Robsonie.Ferguson fill the gap after the departure of McClaren promoted the ex-football players Jim Ryan and Mike Phelan to the position of assistant manager and first team coach at the same time. But Sir Alex Ferguson has created yet another void, selling a great defender Jaap Stam to Lazio of Rome. The reason was his autobiography, which described the Dutchman illegal FIFA and UEFA ways of obtaining it from PSV Eindhoven (Stam Ferguson had persuaded to leave the club before his talks with the authorities of the club). Transfer this surprised everyone, including the player! One Barthez with colleagues from France, Laurent Blanc's team went to Manchester United on a free transfer, to play the position Stam and have such partners in the defense and Wes Brown, Gary Neville and Ronny Johnsen.Wielu thought that Blanc will be the last asset Ferguson at United, especially after the expensive transfers of Ruud van Nistelrooy and Juan Sebastian Veron. But Sir Alex once again pulled out cash on the table in January 2002, the Uruguayan striker Diego buying Forlana.Trudno was to find a place where they could push Forlan, taking into account that Van Nistelrooy has set a new record for the Premier League, scoring goals in eight consecutive league battles. Manchester United have won all the matches, returning to the league title race, having lost more games (6 in early December) than usual in a normal, successful season, so the 2001/02 season ended on the third position. Last 3 seasons, almost every football fan knows the United, so there is no need to describe their tutja, maybe in a few years ...
